I find it annoying if the player is a butt pirate or a womanizer. Flaunting in our faces their sexual actions and preferences just ticks me off. Stick to the athletics. If they want to be known for being queer then go into the porn filming careers.

" It'll continue with an appearance Tuesday on ABC's "Good Morning America." As for it being along the lines of what Robinson did with the Dodgers in 1947, Collins' former Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers said it best: "If you have learned anything from Jackie Robinson, it is that teammates are always the first to accept. It will be society who has to learn tolerance."

Compares him to Jackie Robinson. hurl.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. (multiple votes using multiple internetz devices are allowed!) And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Your post nailed it, IMHO. I don’t care who they climb in the sack with. I also don’t want to hear about it from some nobody out to “make history” and a buck. This “in your face” crap from homosexuals like Collins has got to stop.

Ah, if he is mentally deranged I care if he has access to young boys. This is in fact a hallmark of male homos and the reason they seek entry into every organization with a high population of young males. Queers should be monitored, not married.

Modern politics has finally put it’s mark on professional sports. And like everything else politicians touch, professional sports is now soiled, degenerate, foul, dirty and corrupt. I’m sure there’s always been some corruption, but with the added stench of politics...I won’t waste any more of my time on it. I’m so sick to death of commies and poofters.

(I'm weary of being lorded over by criminals and gilded degenerates.)

This “marginal player” was the worst player on the roster for a team that won 29, lost 53 games in their fifth consecutive losing season last year. He averages one shot and one rebound per game in his six playing minutes, and he makes a shot in about one out of six games. It doesn’t get worse than this guy in the NBA. His claim to fifteen fleeting minutes of fame is coming out as gay; otherwise even his teammates might not know who he is.

He can retired to the speaking circuit (and even get school districts to pay his way ask he speaks out for "tolerance"). Not to mention the honorary role as Grand Marshall Kleegle Dragon of the Gay Pride parades.

I’m sick of people who think the world needs to know what type of sex they prefer. We don’t see straight people running around announcing their sexual preference. It must be a mental disorder that gays suffer from.

(America is being destroyed by filthy traitors in the political establishment)

I’m in your camp. I am very apathetic toward sports. I frankly I just don’t care what the athletes do, what they play or how they play. It is a completely foreign world to me, much like Hollywood. I get a lot of heat at work over that from time to time. I just don’t care.

Over the last several years I have found myself caring less and less about professional sports. The professional sports industry keeps coming up with reasons for me not to watch. And then, when I look at the darkness this country and this world are headed toward as the moral slide continues, professional sports just seems like one more meaningless distraction keeping the masses pacified as their freedoms and money are stolen out from under their noses.
